Developing algorithm for the evaluating of impact of heat stress about dairy cattle crossbred
, 2016 The aim of this study was to develop an algorithm to predict thermal environment for the creation of crossbred dairy cattle (1⁄2, 3⁄4 and 7⁄8 Holstein-Zebu) and to assess of the impact of heat stress on their physiological parameters and productive performance. The algorithm was developed in the computer program VisuAlg 3.0.
